Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Long leg (L) is dominant over short leg (l) and Good muscles (G) is dominant over weak muscles (g).
Heterozygous long leg, weak muscle = Llgg
Heterozygous long leg, strong muscle = LlGg
Llgg x LlGg
Offspring:
2 LLGg - Long leg, strong muscle
4 LlGg - Long leg, strong muscle
2 LLgg - Long leg, weak muscle
4 Llgg - long leg, weak muscle
2 llGg - short leg, strong muscle
2 llgg - short leg, weak muscle
Ratio of offspring with long leg and strong muscle = 6/16 or 3/8
Ratio of offspring with long leg and weak muscle = 6/16 or 3/8
Ratio of offspring with short leg and strong muscle = 2/16 or 1/8
Ratio of offspring with short leg and weak muscle = 2/16 or 1/8
